let Association. •
The month .of June will "see the city
turning• its attention to non-political con-
ventions and gatherings of religious 'or-
ganizations, chief of which this year will
be the General Assembly of the Presby-
terian Church of Canada. ft is with a
feeling akiu to relief that this year we
turn to these more placid functions after
an orgy of political discussion and meet-
ings. `
The climax came, with the demonetra-
tione in honor of the leaders of the Fed-
eral
ederal parties. As indicating the height to
which partisan feeling has risen it mar
be said safely that there never risen,

in the „history of Toronto or of Canada
two meetings held at a time when no
election ie announced or even in eight,
that have, been as largo, enthusiastic and
tempestuous as the meetings held this
month in honor of Sir Wilfrid Laurier
and Tiir. Borden respectively. It is indeed
doubtful if any city in Canada at any
time, either during an election •campaign
or otherwise, has seen two such meetings.
An observer could not bat bei
mpreeeed
with the high feeling. approaching
bit-
terness, which displayed itself to a great-
er or less degree at each of the meetings.
At each there was a fair sprinkling of
the opposite . party to that • holding the
demonstration, but there was no sign of
disorder, and indeed interjections of even
a harmlees character were tabooed with
a severity which boded ill for persistent
repetition.
Won't Tolerate Heckling.
This point illustrates a great difference
between a Canadian political meeting and
one held in Britain. In the old country
every speaker, no matter what his rank
or standing, from the Prime Minister
down, must expect to put up with heck-
ling. In, tact they expect it and many
of the most successful speakers thrive on
it. The heckling is generally to the
point, but to an unexperienced speaker
it must be disconcerting. However, in
England he has to get used to it. But
in Canada the audience itself will not
stand it in the apparent belief that it
seems to reflect on its own loyalty to the
epe•a,ker.
There were two significant incidents in
connection with the visit of the Prime
Minister. One was the fact that the
coachman who drove his carriage on the
night of the meeting had on a similar
occasion performed the same office for
the late Sir John Macdonald. His name
is John Barnes, and he is, of course, now
Quite an old man. The carriage, too, was
the one used for Sir John.

The other feature was the fact that the

A. BAMANTIC LEGACY*,
A Young Woman Receives 'a For-
tune For 'Her Honesty.,
A wealthy man died in Brussels,.
Belgium, •heaving nearly the whole
of his fortune' to a young w- man
who was entirely unacquainted with
him.
He was a very eceentric,man,- and
set out, like Diogenes, in search
of an honest 'man. His tub was an
omnibus arid his lantern a' small
coin. In the omnibus he teak his
seat near the conductor, and always
showed himself very obliging-, pass-
ing up the money of passengers ;and
returning the change, but to the lat-
ter he always managed to add a
half a franc. Then he would watch
those to whom it came. They would
count it carefully,; notice • the extra
coin, and invariably slip it into
their pockets. No one thol.ight of
the poor conductor, whose meager
salary of three francs a 'day ,could
ill spare such a Lose.:'
But at last a 'young woman
passed hers back with:. ",Conduc-
tor, you have given pie half a
franc too much."

The new Provincial .Treasurer, Honor-
able I. B. Lucas, is . personally one of the
most popular members of the Legislature.
Mr. Lucas has found it necessary to 'ex-
plain that his initials I. B. do not stand
for Isaac Brock, but for the family name
of Isaac Benson. Apart from its 'lack of
veracity lie has -no objection to the Brock
reference, although Mr. Lucas is himself
not noted for his pugnacious or comba-
tive qualities. That is not to say that
he shuns a conflict.- Quite the reverse:
But he is not one of thpse who are con-
tinually looking for trouble. In manner
he is one of the pleasantest men one
could wish to meet. That he has natural
ability his friends confidently assert, and
they have little doubt that he will make
a success of his new position.
Mr. Lucas was originally a Lambeen
'County boy. When he entered the Legis-
lature in 1898 he was described as the
"boy orator," but fifteen years have
brought him up to the middle age stand-
ing of ;forty-six years.
U. E. Loyalists at Luncheon.
Once a year the Empire Loyalist Zoo -
elation of Toronto gathers together for
a luncheon party. The occasion is al-
ways an exceedingly pleasant one,with
ladies generally in the .majority. Mem-
bet'ship in the, Association is confined to
these who can trace descent from the
original 'Loyalists who migrated to '• Cgnc
ads dnring.'and • following the war of
American' Independence. At . the lunch-
eon this year one of the guests Was His
Lordship the Bishop of Toronto, who be-
moaned the fact that while she was as
loyal, he thought, as it was possible for
anyone to be, he was,, not able to treed
his ancestry to a U. F. Loyalist source
and was therefore deprived from the pos-
sibility of enembership in the Associa-
tion.
Prominent in the organization are re-
presentatives of such families as the
Denisons, Nevilles, Ryersons, Merritts,
Reefers, Stratbys and Dicksons. The most
prominent figure of all is probably Col-
onel Denison,, who thinks, and is not
afraid to say, that all that was beet in
United States citizenship left it when the
U. E. Loyalists made their treck to On-
tario and the Maritime Provinces. Only
the siftings, he says, were left for Uncle
Sam.
Among the guests at the luneheat this
year was Colonel Hugh McLean of St.
John, who described how whole" counties
in' that province were settled solidly by
Loyalists, their descendants still tilling
the soil. One church congregation had
moved bodily from New York city to St.
John.
